Q. So did he actually shoot?
A. “Based on testimony of the experts and their analysis of films of the assassination, the Commission has concluded that a rifle man of Lee Harvey Oswald’s capabilities could have fired the shots from the rifle used in the assassination within the elapsed time of the shooting.” [Spnecer, Lauren. The Assassination of John F. Kennedy.] Furthermore, Oswald possessed a rifle which enabled him to commit the assassination.

Q. Why did Jack Ruby kill Oswald and was he involved in a conspiracy?
